St. Senator

Facts

Archbishop of Milan, Italy, and papal legate. While still a priest, he was sent by Pope St. Leo I the Great as a legate to the imperial court of Constantinople (modern Istanbul, Turkey) to petition Emperor Theodosius II to summon a council to define Chrisfs two natures in the wake of the heresies of the time. Senator was subsequently sent as a papal representative to the Council of Chalcedon (451), which proved a triumph for orthodoxy and the position of the pope. In 472, Senator was appointed archbishop of Milan.
